After months of preparation, Matt and I boarded a plane to Paris to meet one of our incredible Ugandan students, Esther. She won a nationwide modeling competition in Uganda and received a free plane ticket to Paris as her prize. It just so happened that we had business in Paris at the same time. So here she is! A young woman from a village outside of Kampala. First person in her family EVER to travel outside of Uganda! Stepping off the plane and into our proud arms. THIS IS ANOTHER THRILLING STORY THAT ALL OF OUR SUPPORTERS, DONORS, AND OUR AMAZING CAST HAVE BEEN A PART OF! Thank you for being a part of this miracle. You always have been. And always will be.
